Huntress/Spear Starting location

I'm helping a friend build out his character and it seems weird that huntress didnt start in the strength/Dex area, since spears need both.

change some nodes to better benefit 1 hand damage, aoe damage, and some smaller stuff. the area has plenty of good bleed and ailment damage nodes and is still close to the spear constellation grouping that i feel like it would be a better fit than the pure dex starting area. not to mention the current starting area is next to some great nodes IF you could go dex/int.

just seemed weird to me. what are your thoughts on possibly moving the huntress start to the str/dex area instead, even if it probably wont happen.
